Summary: The Rancho RS9000XL series delivers industry-leading versatility for the 1982-1985 Jeep Scrambler and AM General FJ-9. Featuring a signature 9-position manual tuning knob, these shocks allow drivers to instantly adjust damping levels to suit specific terrains or load requirements. Whether you are navigating off-road obstacles or commuting on the highway, this Tier 2 adjustable system provides the perfect balance of firm control and plush comfort. These shocks are precision-engineered to accommodate a 2.5-inch front lift, ensuring optimal suspension geometry and travel.

Features

• 9-Position Tuning: A manual adjustment knob provides nine levels of damping control to ensure the driver can tune the ride for towing, hauling, or street performance.
• Large Shock Body: A 2.75-inch diameter reserve tube provides increased fluid capacity to ensure cooler operating temperatures during heavy-duty use.
• Nitrogen Gas Charged: High-pressure gas optimization provides a reduction in aeration and foaming to ensure consistent damping performance in varied conditions.
• Protective Boot: A heavy-duty red polyvinyl accordion boot provides a physical barrier for the piston rod to ensure long-term seal durability against debris.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I adjust the firmness of these shocks?
These shocks feature an external 9-position knob located at the base of the shock body that can be turned by hand to increase or decrease damping resistance.

Will these shocks lift my Jeep Scrambler?
No, these shocks do not create lift. They are specifically configured for vehicles that have already been equipped with a 2.5-inch front lift kit.

What is the benefit of the larger 2.75-inch body?
The increased oil capacity allows the shock to dissipate heat more effectively, which prevents “shock fade” during prolonged use on rough terrain.
